Overview
Tasmania has the second lowest theft volume nationally. Hobart and Launceston account for the vast majority of thefts. The recovery rate is relatively high at 73%, as the island's geography limits opportunities to move vehicles undetected. Most thefts are opportunistic or juvenile joyriding rather than organised crime.
